and as a consequence is aa much opposed to craw lord under no possible circumstances can crawford obtain the votes of ihis state this hostility to him has not been engendered because it may be considered he is in the wa ot mr calhoun long before mr calhoun wa announced as a candidate by his friei.ds this state was hostile to the elevation of mr crawford h was looned upon at incompetent previous to the development of the views of the radical faction and h was considered as identified with that fac tion and as resting his hopes upon its success so soon as it received the form of an organized body there are a few but very few men in this stale lriendly to crawford some have supposed thai be cause mr lowndes was once nominated hy a legislative caucus the friends of that distinguished statesman were unfriendly to mr calhoun but it is not so 1 hey are equally hostile to the elevation of mr crawford in georgia there is greal op position to mr crawford but j make no doubt he will leceive the vote of that state because its electors are chosen by the legislature were they chosen in dis tricto by the peiple there is no doubt he would lose many votes and even as it is i believe he owes his support there to state feeling and state pride '* not that they loxe mr calhoun less but that they love georgia more 1 find from conversing wilh mr crawford's friends with many of whom i am very intimate that they rest their hopes now upon hi strength in the state ot new york ir which if he fail i am induced to think he will be abandoned altogether great anx iety is felt as to the course that state will ultimately pursue we most ardently wish that the two states will be united on the great question because we believe that mr calhoun will be the most eftvient president ;

and from his long experience in the business and his unremitted attention to his cus tomers he hopes to give general satisfaction and still to merit a share of that patronage which has been so liberally extended to him hereto fore in th western parts of north-carolina he receives the latest fashions everv six months regularly from philadelphia and charleston he spent part of last winter with messrs sebring and fergus'in the first tailors of charleston where he made himself fully acquainted with their rules of measuring and cutting ; and he in tends to spend part of h s time with them occa sionally in order to make himself acquainted with the latest and newest fashions that our creator made the earth for the use of the living and not of the dead that those who exist not can have no use nor right in it no authority nor power over it ; that one generation cannot fore close or burthen its use to another which comes to it in its own right and by the same divine beneficence ; that a preced ing generation cannot bind a succeeding one by its laws or contracts these deriving their obligation from the existing majori ty and that majority being removed another comes in its place with a will equally free to make its own laws and con tracts these are axioms so self evident that no explanation can make them plain er for he is nol to be reasoned with who says that non existence can control existence or that nothing can move some thing thev are axioms too pregnant with salutary consequences the laws of civil society indeed for the encourage ment of industry give the property of the parent to his family on his death and in most civilized countries permit him even to give it by testament to whom he pleases and it is also found more con venient to suffer the laws of our prede cessors to stand on our implied assent as if positively re-enacted until the existing majority positively repeals them but this does not lessen the right of that ma jority to repeal whenever a change of circumstances or of will calls for it habit alone confounds civil practice with natural right of the merits of the pamphlet i say nothing of course ; having found it ne cessary to decline giving opinions on books even when desired with my thanks for the pamphlet be pleased to accept the assurance of my respect-b the business in his absence will be conducted by a steady gentleman and a man acquainted with his business i expect in a very short time to receive from philadelphia cards of directions for measuring which i will distribute in the adjoining counties in order to enable gentlemen to send their mea sures and have clothes made without the trou ble of attending in person should any gentleman wish cloths i will at tend to the purchase of them in any of the stores in lincolnton or furnish them myself according to directions the merchants in lin colnton will generally keep excellent supplies of cloths his business will also be conducted as here tofore in asheville at his old stand at mr james patton's under the firm of clayton & brown where prompt attention shall be given * those who are in the habit of getting their clothes made in charleston i would recommend to sebring & ferguson as i know them to be first rate tailors n b the merchants of asheville will here after keep a good assortment of cloths and cas imeres david clayton asheville sept 26 1823 3t78 the undersigned have been long acquainted with mr clayton and have uniformly applied to him to do their tailoring business they feel no hesitation in recommending him as a man worthy of every degree of confidence as a man of unexceptionable character and morals ;

and as a consequence is aa much opposed to craw lord under no possible circumstances can crawford obtain the votes of ihis state this hostility to him has not been engendered because it may be considered he is in the wa ot mr calhoun long before mr calhoun wa announced as a candidate by his friei.ds this state was hostile to the elevation of mr crawford h was looned upon at incompetent previous to the development of the views of the radical faction and h was considered as identified with that fac tion and as resting his hopes upon its success so soon as it received the form of an organized body there are a few but very few men in this stale lriendly to crawford some have supposed thai be cause mr lowndes was once nominated hy a legislative caucus the friends of that distinguished statesman were unfriendly to mr calhoun but it is not so 1 hey are equally hostile to the elevation of mr crawford in georgia there is greal op position to mr crawford but j make no doubt he will leceive the vote of that state because its electors are chosen by the legislature were they chosen in dis tricto by the peiple there is no doubt he would lose many votes and even as it is i believe he owes his support there to state feeling and state pride '* not that they loxe mr calhoun less but that they love georgia more 1 find from conversing wilh mr crawford's friends with many of whom i am very intimate that they rest their hopes now upon hi strength in the state ot new york ir which if he fail i am induced to think he will be abandoned altogether great anx iety is felt as to the course that state will ultimately pursue we most ardently wish that the two states will be united on the great question because we believe that mr calhoun will be the most eftvient president ; that he is tbe most n tional and will do more to unite the feelings of tbe great american family than any oth er man monticello september 23 1823 your letter of august 28 with the pamphlet accompanying it was not re ceived until the 18th inst tailoring business lincolnton n c the undersigned informs his friends and the public in general that he has opened a shop of the above business in lincolnton n c where he will be ready at all times to attend to the business of those who may favor him with their custom ; and from his long experience in the business and his unremitted attention to his cus tomers he hopes to give general satisfaction and still to merit a share of that patronage which has been so liberally extended to him hereto fore in th western parts of north-carolina he receives the latest fashions everv six months regularly from philadelphia and charleston he spent part of last winter with messrs sebring and fergus'in the first tailors of charleston where he made himself fully acquainted with their rules of measuring and cutting ; and he in tends to spend part of h s time with them occa sionally in order to make himself acquainted with the latest and newest fashions that our creator made the earth for the use of the living and not of the dead that those who exist not can have no use nor right in it no authority nor power over it ; that one generation cannot fore close or burthen its use to another which comes to it in its own right and by the same divine beneficence ; that a preced ing generation cannot bind a succeeding one by its laws or contracts these deriving their obligation from the existing majori ty and that majority being removed another comes in its place with a will equally free to make its own laws and con tracts these are axioms so self evident that no explanation can make them plain er for he is nol to be reasoned with who says that non existence can control existence or that nothing can move some thing thev are axioms too pregnant with salutary consequences the laws of civil society indeed for the encourage ment of industry give the property of the parent to his family on his death and in most civilized countries permit him even to give it by testament to whom he pleases and it is also found more con venient to suffer the laws of our prede cessors to stand on our implied assent as if positively re-enacted until the existing majority positively repeals them but this does not lessen the right of that ma jority to repeal whenever a change of circumstances or of will calls for it habit alone confounds civil practice with natural right of the merits of the pamphlet i say nothing of course ; having found it ne cessary to decline giving opinions on books even when desired with my thanks for the pamphlet be pleased to accept the assurance of my respect-b the business in his absence will be conducted by a steady gentleman and a man acquainted with his business i expect in a very short time to receive from philadelphia cards of directions for measuring which i will distribute in the adjoining counties in order to enable gentlemen to send their mea sures and have clothes made without the trou ble of attending in person should any gentleman wish cloths i will at tend to the purchase of them in any of the stores in lincolnton or furnish them myself according to directions the merchants in lin colnton will generally keep excellent supplies of cloths his business will also be conducted as here tofore in asheville at his old stand at mr james patton's under the firm of clayton & brown where prompt attention shall be given * those who are in the habit of getting their clothes made in charleston i would recommend to sebring & ferguson as i know them to be first rate tailors n b the merchants of asheville will here after keep a good assortment of cloths and cas imeres david clayton asheville sept 26 1823 3t78 the undersigned have been long acquainted with mr clayton and have uniformly applied to him to do their tailoring business they feel no hesitation in recommending him as a man worthy of every degree of confidence as a man of unexceptionable character and morals ;
